The 2020/21 Test series is a memorable one as India beat Australia in Australia for the second time in a row.
The series was a concoction of drama, action, verbal duels and a riveting finale that had both countries at the edge of their seats.
After going down by eight wickets at the Adelaide Oval, India fought back to win by the same margin in the Boxing Day Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
The third Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground was closely fought but ended in a draw. However, it all came down to the deciding Test in Brisbane.
Promoted
With India fighting a spirited home team alongside multiple injury concerns, the men in blue showcased one of the greatest warrior-like moments led brilliantly with the bat by wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant.
Pant’s 89 not out in the second innings ensured India walked out victorious and end a testing year with a bang.
